My shell is set to bash in /etc/passwd, but when I run "junest" or "junest -f', I get /etc/sh instead. chsh and usermod do nothing.

fsquillace commented 5 years ago

junest defaults to /usr/bin/sh. You can explictly call the shell if that helps: junest -- bash.

DiagonalArg commented 5 years ago

Yes, I see that. Wouldn't it be sensible for junest to follow /etc/passwd, though?

Take that as a feature request, if you like.

fsquillace commented 5 years ago

The shell specified in /etc/passwd does not necessarily exist within JuNest.

Ah, I see. Ok, thanks.
